suds Connect

The network for people who run laundry businesses.

A private, verified network for laundromat owners and Laundry Pros. Ask someone who's been there, find equipment, hire help, and get every suds update, training and support answer in one place.

Free for every verified suds business. No ads in your face, no strangers.

What's inside

Like LinkedIn and Facebook, but only for laundry.

Everyone in Connect runs a laundry business that suds has verified. Laundromats and Laundry Pros each have their own network, so you're talking with people in the same line of work.

Connect and network

Follow owners and Pros, see their posts in your feed, and message them directly. Profiles show a verified badge, never a home address.

Ask the people who know

Post a question about a machine, a price or a customer. Tag the equipment, and mark the answer that fixed it as solved so the next person finds it.

Groups

Join groups by topic or region, or start your own, public or private. Run a quick poll when you want a straight answer from the group.

Marketplace

Buy and sell equipment, find industry deals, browse the vendor directory, and offer your services. Every listing is reviewed before it goes live.

Job posting

Post a job for attendants, drivers or wash & fold help. Applicants apply on the web, and you follow up, pass or mark them hired in the app.

The suds Team is here too

Releases, training and support all live in Connect. Message the suds Team from its profile, or from Settings, any time.

Support for businesses

Support, releases and training, all in one place.

Connect is becoming the home of support for suds businesses. Every release note and every training is posted there first. When you have a question, you get an answer from the suds Team, and often from an owner who solved the same problem last week.

  • Release notes the day features ship
  • Training posts you can search later
  • A direct line to the suds Team

Customers ordering laundry keep Customer Support Chat in the suds app. Connect is for businesses.

Pricing

Free to join. Optional paid listings.

Networking, groups, messages, questions and support are free. Marketplace listings for equipment, jobs, services, industry deals and the vendor directory are free to post right now, and every listing is reviewed before it goes live.

Connect FAQ

Good to know.

Who can see what I post?

Only verified members of your network: laundromats see laundromats, and Laundry Pros see Laundry Pros. Private groups are visible only to their members. Marketplace listings are shared across both networks.

What about Partner Support Chat in sudsHQ?

It still works. Over time, we're moving business support into Connect, where the suds Team answers and other owners can help too. Release notes and training are already posted there. You can also reach us through the contact form.

Does Connect cost anything?

No. Networking, groups, messages and Marketplace listings are all free right now. If a listing ever has a price, you'll see it before you post.

Can my staff join?

Not yet. Connect is for owners and Laundry Pros today.

What if someone breaks the rules?

Report any post, comment or profile. Posts with several reports are hidden until we review them, and you can block or mute anyone.

Your washer can pay you.

Join suds as a Laundry Pro or plug your laundromat in. Set your own prices and hours, and take only the orders you want.
